Location

Fed up with City Life? The Gîte La Pierre Levée is ideally located for a 
relaxing rural vacation, benefiting from its proximity to a choice of 
Channel ports, as well as some of Normandy's most scenic countryside.

We are roughly an hour's drive south of Caen, and easily accessible from all the main Channel ferry terminals and crossing points:
